Non Disclosure Agreements – should you use one?

Do you need a Non-disclosure Agreement (NDA­)? How can you get one?

Yes – if you want to approach a third party with a view to manufacturing your product, or licensing your innovation, particularly if you don’t have any formal intellectual property protection in place.

An NDA or confidentiality agreement signals to a third party that the information you have provided is confidentiality and should not be disclosed without your permission.

You need to ensure that it is tailored to your needs, correctly completed, witnessed and signed. Need a template?
